She tells us why it was important to her to have the ability to choose the circumstances of her death. Dying- A Memoir is a breathtaking book about vulnerability and strength, courage and humility, anger and acceptance. It is a deeply affecting meditation on dying, but it is also a funny and wise tribute to life.
